Advisory services

The core benefit of having one or more angel investors is not just the capital they can provide, but more importantly the knowledge and network connections they can utilize to accelerate your startup. Before that can happen, most companies need to get a few things in order.

Based on our broad experience from the Nordic and European startup ecosystems, NorBAN delivers advisory services as scoped and paid engagements based on the programs and projects we run.

Scope and pricing for advisory services are agreed per company in advance.

Know what investors will ask before you ask them for money

The NorBAN fundraising knowledge base walks any aspiring startup founder through everything they need to know about getting their first (or second!) investment – from investor readiness, the pitchdeck, financial models, the data room, valuation and the Norwegian closing process, step by step. All articles are written from a startups perspective and available for free!
